“After an inferior man has been taught a doctrine of superiority he will remain as inferior as he was before his lesson. He will merely assume himself to be superior, and attempt to employ his recently-learned tactics against his own kind, whom he will then consider his inferiors. With each inferior man enjoying what he considers his unique role, the entire bunch will be reduced to a pack of strutting, foppish, self-centered monkeys gamboling about on an island of ignorance. There they will play their games under the supervision of their keeper, who was and always will be a superior man.” MenKindHas BeensSelfPlayGamesEnjoyRolesIgnoranceTaughtLessonsUniqueAssumingBunchDoctrineSuperiorsIslandsPacksInferiorsSuperiorityMonkeysTacticsSelf CenteredKeepersSuperior ManSupervisionStrutting Book:The Devil's Notebook Source: The Devil's Notebook

“Does it mean, if you don't understand something, and the community of physicists don't understand it, that means God did it? Is that how you want to play this game? Because if it is, here's a list of things in the past that the physicists at the time didn't understand [and now we do understand] [...].
